Sunday Salon #5


Current Bible plans and projects:


ESV Church History Bible (Daily Offices from the Book of Common Prayer).
 This week I read Psalms 107 - 138; Proverbs 22-28; Joshua 13-24; Judges 1-21; Ruth 1-4; 1 Samuel 1-20; Galatians 1-6; Mark 1-16; Ephesians 1-6. I am continuing to love this one.


ESV Large Print Thinline Reference Bible. I finished this one this week and reviewed it. The books I read this week were Psalms 90-150. 1 Peter. 2 Peter. Proverbs. Gospel of John. 1 John. 2 John. 3 John. Jude. Revelation. 

NRSV XL (Anglicized Catholic). This is the Bible I am now reading with the Be Thou My Vision devotional. (I was reading ESV Large Print Thinline). This one has a unique layout/size/design. I am liking it so far. This week I read 1 Chronicles. 2 Chronicles. Job. Ezra. Nehemiah. Song of Solomon. Wisdom of Solomon. Genesis. Exodus 1-15. (For the record, I am neither British nor Catholic. I just like the design/size of the Bible).

BSB M'Cheyne. I am reading this on the YouVersion app. Genesis 23-29; Matthew 22-28; Nehemiah 12-13; Esther 1-5; Acts 22-28. This week's plan saw the finishing up of Nehemiah, Matthew, and Acts! Sometimes this plan seems so slow...and then you get several 'accomplishments' all at once.

Growing 4 Life, January, Mark 1-4. I'm not sure if this week the FB group will be starting the next section of Mark or not? We'll see. Regardless, this past week I read Mark 1-4 in these translations: BSB, NASB 95, 1611 KJV, NASB 77, NLT, LSB, BSB. 

Current plans for other books:

I reviewed one Bible and two books this week! I also finished two books. I'll be reviewing them soon!

Questions:

Do you ever have trouble deciding what Bible to read or what Bible to read next? 
Have you read any good books lately?

Sunday Salon #4


Current Bible plans and projects:

ESV Church History Bible (Daily Offices from the Book of Common Prayer). This week I read Psalm 75-106. Proverbs 15-21. Deuteronomy 1-34. Joshua 1-12. Romans 14-16. 1 Corinthians 1-16. 2 Corinthians 1-13. I am still loving the ESV Church History Bible. However, I am sad to have discovered page creases in 2 Corinthians that go through Ephesians. On one hand, any Bible I read is going to look used and loved eventually. You'll be able to spot on a glance "read" and "not read." On the other hand, page creases aren't quite natural looking either. No natural use of mine would lead to creases like that. Still, I'm going to try to relax about it. 

ESV Large Print Reference BibleI am (currently) reading this one alongside the Be Thou My Vision devotional. This week, I read Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi. Hebrews. James. Psalms 1-89. I am so close to finishing the Old Testament. I have Psalms and Proverbs. I am relatively close to finishing the New Testament too: John, 1 Peter through Revelation.

BSB M'CheyneUsing the BSB in the YouVersion app. This week I read Genesis 16-22. Nehemiah 5-11. Matthew 15-21. Acts 15-21. Nehemiah is interesting. I've found the chapters either to be amazingly interesting and FULL of things to ponder. Or extremely dull. 

BSB Audio -- I listened Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs this week. 

Growing 4 Life, January, Mark 1-4I have lost track of how many years I've participated in this Facebook group. I know I've been participating since 2020 at least. Anyway, it's now become habit to read portions of Scripture for thirty days in a row. This month--January 2023--is Mark 1-4. I read it seven times this week: 1611 KJV, ESV, NIV 78, NKJV, NASB 77, NIV 84, Coverdale 1535


I won't be keeping track here--probably won't anyway. But SINGING THE PSALMS just became a lot easier. Now, this wasn't anything I was planning on for 2023, but mom made this her goal. And in being a 'good daughter' I discovered this awesome, amazing website, Seedbed Psalter by Timothy and Julie Tennent. 

Current plans for other books:

I read two books this week! Both were library books. I am currently reading John Piper's Come, Lord Jesus and Alisa Childers' Another Gospel? A Lifelong Christian Seeks Truth In Response to Progressive Christianity. 

Questions:

How many Christian books does your local library have? book-books? e-books? Is it a good selection or poor?

Have you ever sung Psalms? Have you ever considered it? What do you see as the pros or cons of being purposeful in singing Psalms?

Sunday Salon #3


Current Bible plans and projects:

BSB Audio Bible. Psalm 120-150. Ruth 1-4. I don't know why I'm listing this one first. It's not my top priority. This is a side-project for me. I mentioned last week that my goal is to try to be more balanced in how I spend my computer work time. If I can have something like an audio bible, a sermon, praise music on in the background instead of more junky-junk, then maybe it will be more of a blessing and less a waste of time/distraction. Psalms was an automatic first choice for me, a way to 'dip my toes' if you will. Ruth I chose because it was short and sweet. (There is something LOVELY and sweet about the book of Ruth.) What book should I tackle next????

ESV Church History Bible. Psalms 38-74. Proverbs 8-14. Leviticus 3-27. Numbers 1-36. Acts 10-28. Romans 1-13. I am using the ESV Church History Bible as my main Bible for the Daily Offices of the Book of Common Prayer. I cannot begin to tell you how much I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one. This study Bible is so incredibly wonderful. True, in a perfectly perfect world, the study notes would not be in a light gray color and they'd be slightly bigger. But every squint is worth it. I have also started noticing authors. There are authors and books now that I'm eager to add to my wishlist. There are some authors/books on my wishlist already that I am all the more ready to read now, now, now. 

ESV Large Print Reference Bible. I am (currently) reading this one alongside the Be Thou My Vision devotional. This week, I read Ezekiel 14-48. Hosea 1-14. Joel 1-3. Amos 1-9. Obadiah 1. Jonah 1-4. Micah 1-7. Nahum 1-3. Luke 4-24. 

BSB M'Cheyne. Using the BSB in the YouVersion app. This week I read Genesis 8-15. Matthew 8-15. Ezra 8-10. Nehemiah 1-4. Acts 8-15. Justin Peters on his YouTube channel is reading aloud the Bible using the M'Cheyne plan. I've been listening to him on the side. He is using the LSB translation, I believe. I am using the BSB. I think daily exposure to these chapters twice--in two different translations--is giving me food for thought. I think I am getting more out of the reading by listening and more out of listening by reading. 

Growing 4 Life, January, Mark 1-4. I have lost track of how many years I've participated in this Facebook group. I know I've been participating since 2020 at least. Anyway, it's now become habit to read portions of Scripture for thirty days in a row. This month--January 2023--is Mark 1-4. I read it eight times this week. NIV 84. NASB 77. NRSV. 1599 Geneva. NKJV. NASB 95. NASB 2020. NIV 1978. Two of these Bibles are new-to-me Bibles that I found thrifting. I do actively seek out in my thrifting the NIV 1984 since it is out of print and increasingly rare. This is the translation I grew up reading. 

Current plans for other books:

I finished and reviewed THREE WHOLE BOOKS this week. (One was a short and quick biography). I am in-between books at the moment. 

Questions:

Do you have a preferred ordering of how to read the books of the Bible?

How do you find new authors to read?

Have you bought any Bibles in 2023? 

Do you have any recommendations for me for christian fiction or christian nonfiction?

Sunday Salon #2


And so it begins...

Current Bible plans and projects:

BSB Audio Bible. Psalms 85-119. I try to listen to twenty or so minutes per day. To clarify, the audio bible is not in place of reading the actual-printed word. (No judgment if that is how you are fed the Word of God. Seriously.). I was just looking for something to listen to that would be edifying (reinforcing) while I do work on computer. I'm balancing listening to the BSB audio and listening to Spotify. I really fell hard for TobyMac's Life After Death album this past week. I am hoping if I have a plan to fill the void with substance instead of [just] junk, then it'll be a blessing. 

ESV Church History Bible. I am using the ESV Church History Bible as my main Bible for the Daily Offices of the Book of Common Prayer. This has presented some challenges--but mainly in a good way. The notes are SO amazing and fabulous that I'm not remotely tempted to skim them. I am therefore taking longer with my morning and evening devotions. (In 2022 and 2021 I only used text-only Bibles for the Book of Common Prayer). So my schedule isn't used to this lengthened time in the Word. But I am loving it so much, I don't mind being "behind schedule" for a bit. This week I read Psalms 1-37, Proverbs 1-7, Exodus 1-40, Leviticus 1-2, Luke 15-24, Acts 1-9

ESV Large Print Reference Bible. I am (currently) reading this one alongside the Be Thou My Vision devotional. I'm not sure this will always be the case. I'll finish the ESV Large Print in the next month--or six weeks. Then I'll begin another Bible to use with Be Thou My Vision. This week I've read Mark 1-16, Jeremiah 1-52, Lamentations 1-5; Ezekiel 1-13, Luke 1-3. 

BSB M'Cheyne. Okay, so it's a text-only BSB [Berean Standard Bible] that I'm using to read the Daily M'Cheyne plan. Be Thou My Vision recommends the M'Cheyne plan. [Plenty of folks do]. I'm using the YouVersion Bible app to keep me on track. Plus, I like having an ongoing plan on YouVersion so my streak continues. This week I read Genesis 1-7, Matthew 1-7, Ezra 1-7, Acts 1-7

Growing 4 Life, January, Mark 1-4. I have lost track of how many years I've participated in this Facebook group. I know I've been participating since 2020 at least. Anyway, it's now become habit to read portions of Scripture for thirty days in a row. This month--January 2023--is Mark 1-4. So far I've read it seven times: in the BSB, ESV, NASB 95, ESV, NASB 95, NKJV, and KJV. (Read 12/31 through 1/6). 

Current plans for other books:

On Friday, I finished Epic Story of the Bible by Greg Gilbert. (My first review of the year! Hoping it's the first of many).  I've been reading The Sisters of Sea View by Julie Klassen. I am LOVING Sisters of Sea View so far. It is set in 1819--I love the Regency time period. 

Questions: 

One change that I am absolutely loving is that I'm now reading my Evening Office earlier in the day (after 4PM but before 8PM). I was reading this one around 9PM. The change in day is HUGE in terms of my alertness and concentration. I feel I am getting much more out of the reading than I was before. 

Have you made any changes this year that you are loving? 

What is your favorite time of day to read the Word of God?

If you read historical fiction, do you have a favorite time period?
